A turning point in Salvador's career came last year, when she won her first Best Actress trophy from the prestigious Gawad Urian Awards for her portrayal of the title character in the indie film "Thelma."

Salvador also expressed joy over the success of her primetime series co-starring Kim Chiu, "Ina, Kapatid, Anak," which is neck-and-neck with another ABS-CBN series "Juan dela Cruz" as the No. 1 most-watched TV program nationwide.
